[Q] convert HTC One 4.2.2/Sense5 to Google Edition

now that I have re-experienced the Nexus experience with my new Nexus7/2013 I wanted to "quickly" convert my stock HTC One to Google Edition to have a more similar experience on both my prefered gadgets. but I can't get pass the first pass... I seem to be stuck thanks to HBOOT 1.54 not allowing me to switch to S-OFF, one of the requirements as I read.
So what do I have: stock HTC One 4.2.2 OTA with in bootloader showing me:
*** TAMPERED *** (no clue why it says this, did not try loading/running anything other then Revone and moonshine, without any luck by the way)
*** UNLOCKED *** (I got this via the official HTCDEV-route)

BIG QUESTION:
do I need to wait before there's an easy way to switch to S-OFF with HBOOT-1.54 or do I have other options to turn my HTC One into a Google Edition?

Hello.
Your bootloader is unlocked, so S-OFF or S-ON is not that important (though you cannot downgrade the hboot with S-ON, so you are stuck on 1.54 untill a tool for S-OFF on HBOOT 1.54 is made - im in the same situation by the way).
1. Flash custom recovery (TWRP or CWM)
2. Install a custom rom (im running with this one, based on android 4.3, GE (Google Edition) of Android.
3. Done
EDIT: No, S-OFF is not required, unless you want to flash CUSTOM firmwares or a few other things. Custom rom and custom recovery is doable as long as your bootloader is unlocked.
Kind Regards

If you will get OTA you mush have S-OFF for convert.
ATM you can only flash a custom rom GE Based

This is good if he will only have the GE rom, if he will do a fully convert he need the s-off

Couldnt he flash the stock GE rom as a zip? Why is S-OFF needed? Because it must come as a RUU?
And thank you for the assistance in my earlier thread! :good: Recognized the sig instantly!

I think if your at 1.54 you can't s-off without some decent work. Have you tried some of the GE ROM's? I've been using the SinLessROM 4.1 GE and its better then stock GE if you ask me. Good luck with whatever path you take.

S-OFF is not avail for 1.54. Not without java-card and and only proof is a YT video - no tools: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sF1CxtbPhV4

Thanks all for these clear and quick responses!
I would prefer the full monty: having an OTA updateable Google Edition
but for now a (as little as possible customized) GE-ROM will do fine
Which ROM can I flash, and what's the best way to do so?

sorry, im tired..

I did it!
Only choose the wrong ROM, now I have that stupid menubutton (3dots) back at the bottom... Tomorrow I'll flash another ROM. Getting the hang of it now. Only pain is always that reinstalling of Apps and settings

Backup apps and settings with titanium backup. For the 3 dot menu there is an xposed mod for that. Note that installing xposed on the HTC one is different than usually, due to the system partition being protected in some way (changes are lost on reboot).

[Q] Bricked Sprint HTC One M7 - Stuck in boot loop

Hello,
About a month back I destroyed my old HTC One. I unlocked the phone and flashed a new rom for the International version instead of the Sprint version. Ever since, no matter what rom I use, the phone is stuck in a boot loop. I cannot set it back to factory with the RUU because my version is more recent and I do not have S-OFF. I've since bought a new phone, but I'm looking to attempt to get the old one working. This has been a learning experience.

Hello I have a problem,
I have htc one m7 locked for sprint (hboot 1.57.000, android 4.4 ) I already root it then i tried to turn s-off with rumrunner it was not possible cuz my kernel was stock ( I think...) so i tried to install custom kernel (Bulletproof-m7wl-1.2.zip) i then i stuck in bootloop ( htc logo). Now I can enter in recovery (teamwin) but i don't know what to do next.

You bootlooped because you loaded an incompatible kernel. Use *only* m7spr/m7wls kernels.
With that said -- just download a ROM you want (again -- stock with M7SPR or M7WLS (they're the same thing, just different ROMs call them by various names -- not going to explain that here).
Then, load your recovery (hopefully my TWRP 2.8.0.3 because it will work for you); "adb push" the rom file to /sdcard (i.e.: adb push <path_to_the_zip>.zip /sdcard) -- yes, that will work in recoveries.
Then install the ROM in your recovery. You should be fine with the caveat that if the kernel you loaded messed up your partitions (by writing it to the entirely incorrect disk partition), you'll have to RUU back to stock.

1- relocking was not the wisest decision, better unlock again
2- to install custom rom, you only need unlocked bootloader and custom recovery. S-Off is NOT needed
3- to get s-off on hboot 1.55, use http://rumrunner.us/ (with compatible ROM, I think ARHD 31.6 should work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183023)

use latest TWRP (2.6.3.3 or above), i believe CWM hasn't been updated for 4.4 ROMs yet: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173870
verify MD5 of twrp before flashing!!

TWRP should work, maybe need to format. I always use the HTC One Developer Edition RUU zip that can be found on HTC Dev site as well as the numerous threads around XDA.

[Q] HTC One m7 unroot and relock boot loader help

Hi, I have a HTC One M7 that i received from a relative from Asia. I unlocked the bootloader using htcdev website and rooted the phone. I also installed TWRP custom recovery on it and that's it. I really never installed any other ROMs. After a few months of using it, it would reboot constantly and i had to do wipe out everything and do a factory reset then it'll be fine. But after a few months, it'll do it again. I'm tired of this and would like to unroot and re-lock my boot loader so i can also update using OTA from HTC. I read somewhere that all i need to do is relock the boot loader and run the appropriate RUU executable for my phone. The problem i have is i don't know which RUU to use. I went to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428276 and saw a bunch of M7 RUUs but which one should i use. None of what i listed totally match what i see there. All i know is this phone is from Asia. Please advice...

In the About phone, here's my current info: Android 4.4.2, HTC Sense 5.5.

AFAIK there is no RUU for 4.20.707.6
Since you have a TWRP installed, what you can do is :
1. Make a TWRP backup of current ROM
2. Download and install my 4.20.707.6_stock_odexed.zip : http://sourceforge.net/projects/htcone/files/4.20.707.6_stock_odexed.zip/download
3. Download the 4.20.707.6 stock recovery : http://sourceforge.net/projects/htcone/files/Recovery/STOCK/4.20.707.6.img/download
4. Fastboot flash stock recovery
5. Reboot and check for OTA ... you have to do two OTA update
a) 4.20.707.6 to 5.12.707.3
b) 5.12.707.3 to 6.13.707.1
6. Done ... optional to reflash TWRP and do whatever you want to do.
No need to relock bootloader
Good luck ... will check this thread tomorrow ... my bed time now

worked great!
Followed your instructions and it worked great. Thanks.

How come Android Revolution ROMs keep putting my phone into a bootloop? It makes my phone boot into TWRP Recovery. I have tried both Android Revolution HD 90.1 ( (Android 5.0.2 Lollipop + HTC Sense 6.0) and the stock HTC system dump (Android 5.0.2 + HTC Sense 6.0 | Latest: 7.15.401.1) without success. I just want to know why!

If you flash in twrp you need to flash the boot.img in fastboot in order to boot because your s-on. And also what you are running I believe are gsm based roms. In which case they will never boot.

ARHD is not compatible with Sprint.
By flashing it your partitions are messed up now.
You will need to RUU to fix and stay in the Sprint section when choosing a rom.

Yep says it several times in the OP.

I can't seem to get any other ROM to boot except CyanogenMod and LiquidSmooth. CM is completely stable while the latest version of LS is a bit buggy. They both absolutely refuse to acceept any APN settings. I am using Ting's service right now and I can't use it on these ROMs.... I tried flashing several stock Sprint ROMs for the HTC Onr M7 and none of them will boot. They'll boot if I flash the boot.img like someone here suggested but it doesn't help. It will go to the desktop, however, the screen is completely black. Is there anyway to flash a stock ROM properly? RUU's don't work either.

Hello guys,
Gurren Lagann is your HTC M7 GSM or CDMA?
Mine is GSM and I'd like to update it to Android 5.0.2 Lollipop.
Thanks in advance.

My HTC One is CDMA (Sprint).
First try updating by going to Settings ---> About ---> Software Updates. If that doesn't work try the following:
This Lollipop update process is ONLY for the Sprint HTC One M7.
First flash the firmware via Fastboot: 6.16.651.2_firmware.zip >>> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934523626
And then install the RUU for 6.16.651.2 via Bootloader RUU Menu:
http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_..._NV_SPCS_4.38_003_release_414036_signed_2.exe
If you don't know how to do these things, then you shouldn't attempt to. You could end up hard-bricking your phone.

Hello again,
I have some experience using fastboot. The thing is that my HTC M7 originally was Sprint CDMA but the person I bought it from he assured me that he unlocked the GSM.

I guess my HTC M7 is similiar to yours, but I want to be sure before flashing it. I have a backup already just in case.
Thanks a lot.

Your phone is for sprint as it says m7wls you can use gsm service perhaps since you say its unlocked meaning Sim unlock always look for Roms that are m7spr or M7wls based I also suggest s-off so you don't have any complications with flashing

I also suggest s-off so you don't have any complications with flashing

It has been a little bit difficult to S-off my HTC, since it has Hboot 1.57. So far I've tried Revone and Rum Runner without success.
Firewater seems to be down and I'm tempted to pay for SunShine, but I'm not really sure about paying for an application that might not work.
My HTC originally came with Android 4.4.2 and I got a notification to upgrade to lollipop via OTA, but I was suggested to make a backup just in case. So I had to root my phone, unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP in order to get my system backup, but due to the previous procedures I can no longer upgrade to lollipop.
Right now all I want is to follow my original plan by installing a stock rom and try to update to lollipop via OTA.
You kindly suggested me to s-off my cellphone, but I've seen some videos on youtube in which they install stock roms with s-on:

If Sunshine won't work you won't have to pay.

First flash the firmware via Fastboot: 6.16.651.2_firmware.zip

Do you mean flashing firmware.zip with these commands?:
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Fastboot reboot-bootloader

And then install the RUU for 6.16.651.2 via Bootloader RUU Menu

I'm counfused, I thought that both (firmware and RUU.zip), should be flashed via fastboot. Am I missing something?
Thank you in advance.

Never mind guys
Finally I upgraded my HTC to Lollipop.
I freaked out because it didn't boot up after flashing RUU.zip
I decided to go out for dinner and come back and try as many times as needed. Fortunately I realized that I misspelled the command fastboot reboot-bootloader I had forgotten to type the hyphen. Then I reinstalled the drivers, rebooted my pc, tried another usb port and used the RUU.exe. Now my HTC M7 seems to be working perfectly
Thank you very much guys.
